Detailed explanation-1: -The role of the excretory system is to remove waste products such as urea, uric acid, and creatinine from the blood to be passed out of the body as urine. The urinary system also helps us to regulate the amount of glucose, salts and water in the blood.
Detailed explanation-2: -If you have a normal level of blood glucose with a high level of glucose in your urine, it may be a sign of an uncommon kidney condition, such as renal glycosuria or Fanconi syndrome. An increase in urine glucose doesn’t always mean you have a medical condition that needs treatment.
Detailed explanation-3: -Glucagon does not regulate blood glucose.
Detailed explanation-4: -Blood sugar, or glucose, is the main sugar found in your blood. It comes from the food you eat, and is your body’s main source of energy. Your blood carries glucose to all of your body’s cells to use for energy.
